Wizards and Warriors animated fantasy documentary lore video series on the world of Middle-Earth – Lord of the Rings continues with the second video on the First Age. Previously we discussed the creation of the world of Tolkien, its powers and races and we see how and why the Elves became the enemies of the Dark Lord Melkor, who they called Morgoth, after their leader Fëanor cursed him for killing his father Finwë and stealing his prized possession – Silmarils. In this episode we see how the evil first rose in the world of Arda and will talk about Ungoliant and other evils, about the Valar and Maiar, about the Elves and their sub-groups – Vanyar, Ñoldor, Teleri, and Avari (https://youtu.be/NWWU5qXPpUg), while this video will show the continuation of the events. In Middle-Earth, Morgoth attacks the Teleri Elves in Doriath under Thingol and his allies Cirdan and Denethor starting the War of the Jewels with the First Battle of the Beleriand. Meanwhile, in the Valinor, the Noldor Elves of Feanor attack their Teleri relatives in the First Kinslaying in order to take their ships. Afterwards, Feanor and his sons travel to the Middle-Earth in order to fight Morgoth and take the Silmarils, leading to the battles of Dagor-nuin-Giliath and Lammoth and the death of Feanor (https://youtu.be/ojpCQ7_nweg). The third episode episode showed the aftermath of the death of Feanor, as the Noldor kingdoms rise in the Middle-Earth taking on Morgoth once again, this time at the battle of Dagor Aglareb, where Feanor’s sons Fingolfin and Maedhros, and others fought against the Dark Lord and we also talked about the rise of the humans – the House of Edain (https://youtu.be/idXEY6X-2jc). The fourth episode will describe the battle of Dagor Bragollach and the rise of the father of Dragons Glaurung.

  9. This story is what Amazons "Rings of Power" could/should have been. They would have to cut back on some of the characters, and add some women to the mix so it's not such a sausage fest. But there was an amazing opportunity to tell the story of the noldor, instead of the bland, heartless drivel Amazon produced instead.

  22. That duel chilled me to the bone… Thanks for putting into perspective and graphics things that can get a bit confusing by reading alone. Can't wait for the Unnumbered Tears.

  29. i find this concept really cool of delivering lore as a documentary im enjoying it a lot.

    this might be a bit weird but maybe something to consider as another thing that might be cool: maybe make documentaries about clan wars in video games? like something like eve online sometimes has wars that are absolutely massive with lots of things involved that could suit this style too and might be interesting to look into if its a feasible possibility

  30. Hereafter Fingon is the High King and affiliates with his cousin and bestie Maedhros, their friendship almost unites the Noldor like in the days of Finwë if it weren't for the villainy of Fëanor sons

  36. What could have been… the absolute monolith of incredible history and epic battles and struggles and classical tales of valiance and vengeance, honor and sacrifice, betrayal and hubris, a man who single-handedly fought the Devil himself…. and instead, the real world gave us the fucking Rings of Power.

  40. I always interpreted that Fingolfin died from drowning in and being burned by Morgoth's blood, rather than his neck being broken. Seems way more badass to me that he died from the blood of his enemy due to the wounds he inflicted.

    Also with the way Tolkien worded it, the last thing he talks about is the pit being filled with Morgoth's blood, and then thus Fingolfin died, rather than hewing Morgoth's foot as he died from a broken neck. I would imagine it would be difficult to summon the strength to inflict such a grievous injury to the most powerful of the Valar with a broken neck. Morgoth would also have been likely to take weight off of his injured foot, decreasing the burden on Fingolfin. Fingolfin can't escape the pit because what was left of his strength was spent on the blow to Morgoth's foot. But to me there never seemed to be any indication that Morgoth broke his neck, rather than Morgoth intended to further humiliated Fingolfin by crushing his body with his foot, which he fails to accomplish, likely due to the foot injury, as you cannot break an already broken and crushed body.

    Being burned and drowned by Morgoth's blood causing the demise of Fingolfin also creates a parallel to the death of Gilgalad, whose body was burnt and charred by the hand of Sauron.
